Avatar (2009) is a groundbreaking epic science fiction film set in the mid-22nd century on Pandora, a lush habitable moon of a gas giant. The story follows Jake Sully, a paraplegic Marine who replaces his deceased twin brother in the Avatar Program, a project where human operators control genetically engineered Na’vi bodies to interact with Pandora’s indigenous species.
As Jake infiltrates the Omaticaya clan, he bonds with Neytiri (Zoe Saldaña) and learns about Pandora’s ecosystem, eventually siding with the Na’vi against the Resources Development Administration (RDA), which seeks to exploit the moon’s resources. The film explores themes of colonialism, environmentalism, and identity, blending cutting-edge motion-capture CGI with live-action filmmaking.
